The news feed is light tonight because Dymphna and I are going away early in the morning, and I had to cut off the inputs early.

We’ll be back soon, and Dymphna is taking her postage stamp-sized computer with her, so there may be some light posting in the interim. But not by me — with my severe presbyopia, my eyes go crossed just trying to look at that ittty-bitty screen.

Thanks to C. Cantoni, Insubria, JD, JP, Nilk, and all the other tipsters who sent these in.

Quote:The holy building will be the first of its kind in the area, ...end

When was a church ever referred to as "a holy building" in the past or present?So a mosque is a "holy building."What is a church?A "profane building?"I dare them to say it.I dare them.

Oh, and about the Iraq war veterans now being hunted in their own country-- the people should rise up and protect the veterans.The reason these people are being silenced is that they know the truth about Islam as culture and can name the enemy.I take it Iraqi immigrants and other Muslim immigrant groups are not meeting such suspicion.Janet Napolitano, you have no soul.

"Two Al-Qaeda terrorists, one of whom plotted to kill thousands of people in a bomb attack on a British shopping centre, have launched an attempt to have their convictions quashed on human rights grounds."

In regards to the Marine vet getting Soviet style treatment. Welcome to Obamaland, young man. DHS views your kind as threats to the state. But take heart you are not alone, if you're White, Christian, believe in the Constitution and BofR you are also viewed as a potential enemy of the state.

And what's happening in San Antonio with the tracking collars. %$*k the school and it's principal. The fact is the parents all 4000 should have pulled their kids out of school for a week(want to hurt a school, destroy attendance).

And the Eagle Scouts learning to be junior Gestapo men, is just sickening.

Then there's the 2 cops who shot 9 bystanders in NYC after confronting armed man at 5 feet. Yet no one is talking about this indiscriminate use of firepower. Guess it's ok for cops to put civilians in mortal danger.

All of this is showing the U.S. has taken it's first steps descending into totalitarianism. Arbitrary Soviet style detentions, monitoring of personal comments on closed forums by authorities, schools indoctrinating students into passivity, turning Scouts into wannabe storm troopers.

Now it looks like the LATimes is targeting one our high profile bloggers(Robert Spencer) seems they have a Reza Aslan stooge by the name of Nathan Lean who is calling for restrictions on his freedom speech as a anti-Islamist.

See this is what happens when hard core Leftists run things. The first thing they shut down is freedom on speech like they do on college campuses.

The amusing thing about the LATimes is its preponderance of Jews on the payroll. Here they hire a representative of a man(Reza Aslan) who would slaughter them and their families like swine given the chance.

But it shows you how much the Leftists hate us. That they would ally themselves with people who will in time kill them all.
